It's Day 994 of #Russia's all-out invasion and war-crime-spree in #Ukraine.
Every single day (not a single day off), I've been here compiling daily threads with all the important news, fact checked and analysed in one place.
Thanks for joining me on the ride. Let's go!

I'll begin the new stories though with breaking news from occupied #Crimea.
Another car bomb attack has killed a prominent invader.
In #Sevastopol, it's reported a captain of the 1st rank of the Black Sea Fleet died when an IED exploded.

Authorities in #Ukraine says this morning's attack by #Russia "was not massive" with the belief a bigger attack will follow.
The combined attack used cruise missiles, ballistics (incl #NorthKorea missiles), as well as drones said a spokesman.
These photos from #Kyiv region.

So, #Russia attacked with:
2x S-300 missiles
2x Kh-101
2x ballistic (likely NorthKorean)
#Ukraine air defence could not stop the S300s but downed the other missiles.
Of 90 drones:
37 shot down
47 stopped EW
2 flew to #Belarus/Russia
2 still fly
2 hit/landed in Ukraine.

SkyNews gives an insight into the life of #Ukraine's Air Defenders near the border with #Russia.
Each night they try to stop the drones before they hit elsewhere in the country.

The last 3 days have seen the 3 highest days of deaths & seriously wounded of #Russia's invaders in the war
Another 1,770 casualties in the last 24 hours, joint second most, matching Monday's figure.
A big rise in hardware losses recently too; 24 tanks is the highest for weeks

#Russia tells its public it is in control of inflation (figures likely invented) while interest rates keep heading up (now 21%).
Printing money is officially illegal in🇷🇺 but is now being advised.
In a depression it can help, but for RU it will cause rampant inflation.

Izvestia reports they cannot afford leasing costs of western planes. They carry 26% of all air passengers.

Double-hit in #Kharkiv.
One of #Russia's drones hit near a shopping centre, the other an apartment block.
Four people are known to be injured so far.
Someone filmed one of the drones before it hit the city.

#Russia is so f**ked up with its revisionism and brainwashing.
Now the Fascist State portrays Stalin as some sort of saint😳
This a guy who banned religion and is one of, if not THE biggest killer in history. Way more than Hitler.
It shows the church is a branch of the FSB.

I reported earlier two drones flew to #Russia and #Belarus, but Gayun, the monitoring service for the latter, registered at last 12 UAVs flying into their territory, with at least two likely to have crashed.
This time Lukashenko's lot sent out air defence jets.

In UK parliament, the LibDem leader has raised the issue of Trump Jr's appalling post mocking #Ukraine.
@EdwardJDavey has called for the PM to use #Russia's seized assets, and not just the interest, to ensure Kyiv remains fully funded.
@Keir_Starmer was non-committal in reply😡

#Ukraine's Intel puts out a glorious quote after killing

Earlier in the 🧵 I reported about soldiers on the run in #Novosibirsk.
Police now say 12 escaped, but 7 have been recaptured.
It seems before they fled, the guys tried to destroy their barracks.

Fact Check:
Slava Ukraini = Glory to Ukraine
Slava Natsii = Glory to the Nation
FYI:
Glory to Nazis = Slava natsystam
It's the same in Russian + Ukrainian language by the way, so disinfo agents like this guy know they are spreading fake news.

The "Mosfilm" studio states it has handed over armoured vehicles and tanks, up to 65 years old, to Putin's army. 36 tanks and even 8 tractors were hauled from warehouses to assist the war effort.

Moscow tries to hide an economic crisis with dodgy official figures, showing a fall in inflation to 8.16% & food prices also rising less quickly
No Russians agree. Other official data show prices ⬆️0.3% this wk alone & a #Russia think tank predicts disaster
